How Apple is Trying to Tackle Diabetes

Apple is known for its iPhones now, but it might be famous for medical discoveries, in the future.

Almost 10% of the population of the United States is currently living with diabetes. That’s 29 million people suffering from problems with their blood sugar levels.

While it’s possible to live a rewarding life with diabetes, it does complicate things. And so, it’s a good thing that scientists are currently working hard to find new ways to treat the disease.
